First flying day for 2012

Monday was spectacular.  This was my first flying outing for this year.  Went out with Ray Meyer.  Made several successful flights.  2 with RADIAN PRO, 2 with the ParkZone Corsair and a maiden flight with the Eflite Mini Ultra Stick. 

I got some lift for awhile with the Radian.  This was still some fo the first dozen flights for this bird.  We discovered that the flaps don't seem to go down far enough to kill off lift and as a result it slowed some, but didn't want to come down.

The wings are in the shop.  I hope to rework the pushrods and make the flaps go as close to 90 deg down as possible.  We'll see.
